I wanted to remind everyone of the Conference coming up this Tuesday in Philadelphia on Mental Health Issues of Diabetes. I am excited about this meeting, and feel that the outcome will be important not only for diabetes but for a large number of diseases. This meeting acknowledges for the first time in a formal and constructive way that families living with a long-term chronic illness not only need support and sympathy, they need fresh new approaches that might actuallly lighten their load.
Listen to our conversation with the organizers and see what you think. I’m in Budapest today or I would be attending the meeting. Perhaps some of you will catch it and let me know how it goes. I will be watching for the reports to come out from it.
